Adventure through nature, history, and challenge
The trail starts in Skradin and heads north towards Skradinsko polje. Immediately after leaving the town, turn right onto an asphalt uphill towards the village of Bićine, which is 900 meters long. Immediately upon reaching the leveling, turn left, and then at the bottom of the downhill section, turn right. The trail passes through Bićine and continues down a wide gravel road towards Prukljansko Lake. Upon arriving at the village of Prukljan, turn right at the first turning, and upon reaching the first intersection, continue straight onto the gravel road. This forest road leads through the macchia and slowly climbs towards the top of the Guduce Canyon, but without major slopes or difficult climbs. At the tenth kilometer, there is a fork where you need to turn left towards the Guduce Canyon. This is followed by a technical descent that gradually narrows and turns into a single track. The downhill section is quite steep and requires increased caution, especially for technically inexperienced drivers. At the bottom of the Guduce Canyon, after crossing the concrete bridge, turn right where the most difficult part of the trail begins, a 900-meter climb to the other side of the canyon with a 10% gradient. Upon reaching the leveling, you need to turn left. After a few kilometers of driving on winding macadam, you will come to a crossroads where you turn right, and immediately after a few hundred meters you will come to a small fork where you need to turn right. After about a hundred meters, you will exit onto the local road from Gaćelez to Dragišići, so please be careful. From that point on, you will be involved in road traffic until the end of the route, and you need to follow the traffic rules. Continue along the asphalt, following the route Čista mala-Lađevci-Krković. Upon arriving in Krković, at the first crossroads, you need to turn right and follow the signs for Piramatovci. Once you pass the hamlet of Bilostanov, there is a short asphalt downhill and immediately after descending you need to turn right towards Sonkovića onto a small local road. The path descends through fields back towards Sonkovića and then Skradin, passing through the very center of Skradin which it surrounds, and finally returning to the starting point.
